Here, we build long-short portfolios based on the characteristics built previously. Portfolios are either sorted on the median, terciles or quintiles, and are either value weighted or equal weighted. Portfolios are built on single sorts of each characteristic and change on a monthly basis. For more details, have a look at our working paper.

Below, we show the performance and some descriptive statistics of the portfolios built on each of the characteristics and sorted with different methods. The risk-factors are built according to the table below, and in general are high-minus-low long-short portfolios, with a few exceptions:
